Things just got very Hamptons in here. Luann de Lesseps, the Real Housewives of New York City alum and self-proclaimed Countess of Chaos, recently claimed that she and actor Hugh Grant had a full-on smooch fest at a Hamptons restaurant. But according to Hugh, her memory might need a touch of Countess-level embellishment.

Let’s break it down. Last week, Luann, 59, had the audacity (and we love her for it) to go viral with a spicy story about “accidentally” bumping into the 64-year-old British actor. By “bumping into,” she apparently means orchestrating a meet-cute straight out of a rom-com. She says they ended up tossing back shots and making out like extras in Love Actually: The Hamptons Edition.

Naturally, the internet lost its collective mind over the idea of Hugh Grant, the king of bumbling charm, getting cozy with the Countess of Cabaret. And now, Hugh—who seems to be sipping tea, not tequila—has chimed in.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter, but who’s keeping up?), Hugh set the record straight with the kind of dry British wit that could outshine even Ramona’s wine collection.

“Steady on,” he wrote. “I do remember meeting a charming RHNY in a restaurant, but I’d like to stress it was about 15 years ago. I don’t recall shots or kissing, but her memory might be better than mine.”

Translation? Hugh’s like, “Sure, I met her, but let’s not turn this into an episode of Housewives Gone Wild.”

Now, is Hugh politely denying the hookup, or is his memory just as blurry as Luann’s after those “shots”? Either way, this is the kind of celebrity drama we live for: no one gets hurt, everyone looks fabulous, and there’s just enough mystery to keep us guessing.

Somewhere, Andy Cohen is furiously booking Hugh for Watch What Happens Live. And somewhere else, Luann is raising a glass (or a microphone), serenading herself with Money Can’t Buy You Class—but maybe it can buy you an unforgettable story.
